Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Having been driving at a low speed the break in the lower arm did not cause an accident. At a higher speed the van could have rolled very easy. Know ing now that you had a report on the rivets poping, I feel my life was put in danger along with my son's knowing that nothing else been brought to the attention of Aerostar owners. I hope that you will contact me or tony mendez that has worked on the van . I feel that there has been accidents because of this but no one knew why. It is a design flaw that must be fixed as most people that own vans have children. Thank you”
